French Authorities Summon Elon Musk After Raid on X’s Paris Office — A Test of Platform Accountability
French authorities have raided X’s Paris office and summoned Elon Musk, with a hearing reportedly scheduled for April. The episode highlights growing European enforcement of online-speech rules and raises fresh questions about platform accountability and the personal liability of tech executives.
Why SpaceX Bought xAI: Musk’s Vision to Move Big AI into Orbit and Power It with Stellar Energy
SpaceX has acquired Elon Musk’s xAI and, via an internal memo, framed the move as the first step toward hosting large AI systems in orbit powered by solar energy. The plan leverages SpaceX’s Starlink constellation and launch capabilities to propose a new, space‑based infrastructure for AI, but faces major technical, environmental and regulatory hurdles.
Musk Bundles xAI into SpaceX to Chase a Radical Vision: AI Computes in Orbit
SpaceX has acquired Elon Musk’s xAI with the stated aim of building solar‑powered data centres in orbit, a strategy Musk argues will solve the energy and scale limits of terrestrial AI. The plan links Starlink connectivity and Starship launch capacity into a long‑term bet that could reshape AI compute economics but faces steep technical, regulatory and financial hurdles.
Musk Merges SpaceX and xAI, Betting on an Orbital AI Datacentre and a $1.25tn Giant
Elon Musk has merged xAI into SpaceX in a stock-swap that values the combined entity at roughly $1.25 trillion and lays out a plan to move large-scale AI compute into orbit using Starship, Starlink and lunar resources. The integration aims to create virtually unlimited solar-powered compute capacity but faces steep technical, regulatory and geopolitical hurdles.
SpaceX to Absorb xAI — Musk Bets on Marrying Artificial Intelligence with Orbital Infrastructure
SpaceX has announced the acquisition of Elon Musk’s AI company xAI, signaling an intention to integrate advanced AI capabilities with the Starlink satellite network. The deal could reshape competition between cloud and AI incumbents while raising regulatory and security questions about data, export controls and dual-use applications.
Epstein Files Unmask a Web of High-Profile Contacts — From Tech Titans to Royalty
U.S. Justice Department disclosures from the Jeffrey Epstein archive have revealed communications and images that link prominent Western figures — including Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Elon Musk and Prince Andrew — to Epstein’s social circle. The releases have reignited political battles in Washington, raised fresh questions about elite accountability, and promise further reputational and legal fallout as investigators and legislators continue to comb the material.
Newly Released Epstein Files Reignite Scrutiny of Global Elites — From Gates and Branson to Musk and Royals
The US Department of Justice has begun releasing millions of pages of Jeffrey Epstein-related documents that implicate a range of prominent figures, including Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Prince Andrew and Elon Musk. The material increases pressure for testimony, litigation and reputational fallout, while highlighting how wealth and networks may have shielded Epstein’s activities.
SpaceX's Ambition for a Million Satellites Raises Stakes in the Race to Control Low Earth Orbit
SpaceX's proposal to deploy up to one million satellites would dramatically increase low Earth orbit congestion and shift the balance of technological and geopolitical power in space. The plan promises expanded connectivity and orbital computing but also raises acute risks around debris, spectrum management and strategic dependence.
Musk's Next Move: Fusing SpaceX, Tesla and xAI into a 'Space‑Compute' Empire
Reports that Elon Musk is exploring tighter integration between SpaceX, Tesla and xAI reflect a strategic push to build a ‘space‑compute’ ecosystem combining satellite connectivity, vehicle and robot endpoints, and large AI models. While the business case is clear, major legal, technical and geopolitical hurdles make a full corporate merger unlikely in the near term; closer operational collaboration is the more probable path.
New Wave of Epstein Documents—Chinese Media Says Over Three Million Pages Name High‑Profile Figures, Including Musk
Chinese social‑media aggregators are amplifying claims that a newly surfaced trove of Jeffrey Epstein‑related documents exceeds three million pages and names high‑profile figures, including Elon Musk. The headlines raise reputational risks for those named but do not constitute proof of criminality; independent verification and legal assessment are still needed.
Musk’s $800bn: A Paper Fortunes Built on Future Narratives and Risky Valuations
Elon Musk’s reported $800 billion net worth stems primarily from recent revaluations of his equity in private ventures, notably xAI and SpaceX, rather than liquid assets. That wealth is highly concentrated and dependent on optimistic long‑term narratives for space, AI and autonomous driving — making it vulnerable to sudden market repricing if those narratives weaken.
Musk Bets on Orbit: Pushing AI Compute from Data Centres to Satellites
Elon Musk is accelerating plans to relocate some large‑scale AI computing into orbit, arguing that intelligence density has been greatly underestimated. The idea could become economically viable within a few years as launch costs fall, but it faces serious technical, regulatory and geopolitical hurdles.
